@derfsanderson well basically yes a larger motor and prop will give you more lift. It actually might be more efficient to have a larger lower RPM prob because of drag. There is an optimum RPM that the Motor and Prob will run at, so try stick in that range.
Just remember that a larger payload will require more energy to keep in the air so you will need larger/better power density batteries.
Im about to get into this and wondering does a larger motor and prop mean more payload lift or arre there limitations to lift?

@sandale I think it's about a 1000rpm/V motor. With the prop on, it's about 5000 RPM or so. So not really high RPM
